Go for it. In this age of 80 years, we don't prescribe costly treatments such as implant supported dentures and it is not compatible too. I assume your remaining teeth are also at the verge of extraction, if so, let it be removed completely and fabricate denture. If there are some useful tooth, partial denture or bridges can be fabricated.

The “blue” or often times “grey” appearance of a stain under or at the edge of a crown usually indicates microleakage or bacteria/decay that has seeped under the edges of the crown. You really should have it replaced before it extends further underneath the crown.
If there was a root canal on that tooth, the discoloration along the gum could be the root discoloration from an old root canal which is absolutely normal. The discoloration can also be due to the metal showing through the ...more

If you stop wearing retainers then your treatment will relapse, kindly wear retainers on time, initially you will feel discomfort but as time goes it will adapt to you and you will be fine, my advise to you is you need to have patience since retainers takes time to adapt, initially you feel little discomfort and irritation. But you have to wear it.

Hello,
you need to visit a dentist and get it checked. Get a full mouth x-ray done to check the bone levels. Depending on that you can either go for fixed prosthesis or implants. The cost can range from Rs. 20,000-60.0000/-.

Bad breath is a condition that is also known as Halitosis in medical terms. It is mostly caused by the sulphur producing bacteria that lurk around beneath the surface of the tongue.

The causes of this protein deposit may include food debris, bleeding, mucus blood, infection and disease in the gums or oral tissue...more

Hello, implant is a fixed prosthesis while denture is a removable prosthesis. If the bone is in good condition teeth implant is a better choice. Consult to dentist for proper treatment.
